I realize that if I am courteous and have a good attitude towards others, treating them with respect and dignity, that they in turn begin to respond in a positive way. But if I react with anger or have an attitude towards others, I am met with hostility in turn.

His acting up has been taken personally by her, I suspect, and so, like anyone would do, she's reacting to the "personal" affronts. Sigh. When I went in to talk to the teachers & Principal, my goal was just not to cry. It's so frustrating. However, I did make it through the meeting and things are turning around. It's good to know that I'm not alone- as always. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17578371707424442036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179396338033153826.post-71375096776260224202013-01-20T22:49:53.521-06:002013-01-20T22:49:53.521-06:00thank you, Carrie.

"living life on life's terms"....seems like an easy statement....I find it hard to do so much of the time. It is a continual journey that I feel has no ultimate destination, expcept in passing from this life to the next.....progress not perfection....so much truth in that Marie. Thank you for being a wonderful support and encourager in recovery! :-)Carrie Van Hornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11715648073882529202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-179396338033153826.post-33410068203543583372013-01-19T21:04:54.912-06:002013-01-19T21:04:54.912-06:00Great post thank you for writing your blog.

When I am hungry angry lonely or tired I may think I am still spiritually fit, that is until I try to have a conversation with my mate about anything that either one of us has any opinion over. :-)Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10317031618782516326noreply@blogger.com
